When you join in the Solstice Hug Knitting Challenge, you’ll get me as your coach and guide to teach you valuable knitting techniques to take your skills to the next level. Over the last fourteen years I’ve taught thousands of knitters through hundreds of video tutorials and live coaching. Myself and the designer of this pattern Cheryl Kubat, will be there with you at every step of the way to support you as you knit this design. This Solstice Hug pattern is short and sweet, which means you only need to knit for thirty minutes or less a day to complete this project in ten days.

“The encouragement from the participants and Knit Collage to everyone who posted a picture or asked for help or just shared excitement about their project was really heartwarming and supportive. Especially for new knitters like me, a community of positive people is so important to help us keep going and continue learning our craft. I gained a lot of confidence in my knitting during this experience. I really enjoyed working with the different textures in my kit and am so proud of the beautiful cardigan I now get to wear and claim as something I made for myself."

Jenny

“This experience made me more confident to try things I have never done before. There is so much help within the community, I don't have a fear of failure."

Tammy

“Never in my wildest dreams did I realize that I was joining so much more than a knitalong when I signed up. I was joining a community. Every pattern has something in it for me to learn; every community member has patterns, tools, and tips to share; and it unleashed something inside, a creativity that not only touches color choices but expands to designing or modifying designs, adding beads/sequins, and developing techniques. Thank you Amy and the KC staff for what you have created. Each person will find something different but each piece of the knitalong is there so that everyone prospers."
